The value of the expression in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
<h3>Vertex Form of a quadratic expression</h3>
Given the quadratic expressions
1.5x^2+6x+......
1.5(x^2 + 4x)
Using the completing the square method
The coefficient of x = 4
Half of the coefficient = 4/2 = 2
The square of the result = 2^2 = 4
The equation is expressed as:
f(x) = 1.5(x^2+4x+ 4) - 4
f(x) = 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
Hence the value of the expression in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4

The mean is 10.
To find the mean you add up all the numbers and divide by how many sets of numbers there were.
8+10+11+8+13=50
50/5=10.
So first we assume that half is adult and have is student.
So
215 adult 215 student
Now since it said they were 70 less student tickets than adult tickets we subtract 70.
215 - 70 = 145
Now we add the 70 we subtracted from student tickets to the adult tickets.
215 + 70 = 285
So there were
285 adult tickets sold and 145 student tickets sold
I hope this helped. Have a great day!
0.52 x 0.24 means "about a half times 0.24". Given the multiple choice answers, the correct answer is therefore 0.1224 (since this is the only one smaller than 0.24).
Proof:
0.50 × 0.24 = 0.12
0.01 × 0.24 = 0.0024
And therefore 0.51 × 0.24 = 0.12 + 0.0024 = 0.1224
Equation 1) 3x + 2y - 5z = 3
Equation 2) 4x - 2y - 3z = -10
Equation 3) 5x - 2y - 2z = -11
Add equation 1 with equation 2.
Equation 4) 7x - 8z = 7
Then subtract equation 3 from equation 2.
Equation 5) -x -z = 1
Multiply all of equation 5 with 7.
5) -7x - 7z = 7
4) 7x - 8z = 7
Add equations together.
z = 14
Plug in 14 for z in equation 4.
7x - 8z = 7
7x - 8(14) = 7
7x - 112 = 7
7x = 119
x = 17
Plug in 17 for x in equation 1, and 14 for z.
1) 3x + 2y - 5z = 3
3(17) + 2y - 5(14) = 3
51 + 2y - 70 = 3
2y - 19 = 3
2y = 22
y = 11
So, x = 17, y = 11, and z = 14
